The treatment for most of those are over-the-counter meds.
Impetigo, shingles and cystitis require prescription, but the rest don't.
The first line can be over the counter meds, but in some cases the second line requires a prescription if the condition isn’t improving. An example is antiviral tablets for cold sores that keep coming back.
I see what you mean. I doubt that will fall into a pharmacist remit though.
It's easy giving mens for first presentation of uncomplicated ailments.
